Indiana teen accused of murdering father, dumping body in river: police
Police in Indiana are continuing the search for the body of a missing HVAC technician who was believed to be dumped into an Indianapolis river after allegedly being murdered by his 17-year-old son.
Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD) detectives arrested David Perry, 17, on June 1, for his alleged role in the murder of his father, Brandon Perry, 35.
Court documents obtained by Fox News Digital allege that David murdered his father and dumped his body in a large trash can in the White River.
Police say Brandon’s body has yet to be found.

On May 29, IMPD Missing Persons detectives began investigating the disappearance of Brandon Perry. He was reportedly last seen on May 26.
Court documents stated that Perry’s sister found a “large amount of blood” on the bottom of his mattress after checking his home and calling police to make a missing person report.
The documents state that investigators later found signs of blood on the basement stairs, and a makeshift burn pile in the side yard of the home. Police were able to recover Perry’s license along with damaged credit cards and a business card in the burn pile.
Investigators would later go on to find that a handgun, bought by Perry and gifted to his son, David, was missing, along with a large, blue Republic curbside trash can. A large amount of trash was located on the ground where the trash can is normally kept, according to court documents.

Police also discovered that on May 26, the day Perry reportedly went missing, David went to Walmart and purchased a red dolly, a dust buster, a small fan, seat covers, a candle, a belt and a small gun safe. The gun safe was found in David’s car with the gun inside, court documents read.
Based upon video surveillance, physical evidence, and multiple interviews, detectives believe Perry was killed by his son.
David supposedly told his aunt that he dumped the trash can “about an hour south” and that the can’s lid “was shut, and it wasn’t going to open,” according to court documents.

Text messages uncovered by police also indicated that David told someone he was going to be leaving at the end of the month after an argument with his dad.
Police then reportedly spoke to the person David was texting, who told them that he said he couldn’t go back to the home but would not say why.

David was formally charged with murder and dangerous possession of a firearm on June 5, according to police.
A jury trial is set for August, but prosecutors believe it will likely be moved.

Motorcycle driver, passenger die in collision on North Keystone Avenue
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A man and a woman died Sunday night when their motorcycle collided with a small SUV, police say.
The names and ages of the two who died were not immediately available, an Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department Capt. Don Weilhammer said from the crash scene.
IMPD was called to the collision just after 9:20 p.m. Sunday in the 7500 block of North Keystone Avenue. That’s just south of the White River bridge.
Investigators think the SUV was southbound and had a green light as it turned east toward 75th Street. That’s when the northbound motorcycle hit the SUV near its rear passenger door.
A witness at a nearby Walmart told IMPD that the motorcycle had passed the shopping area, which is south of the intersection, at a high rate of speed.
The driver and passenger of the motorcycle died at the crash scene.
A man and a woman were in the SUV. The man in the SUV received minor injuries, and the woman was unhurt. They remained at the scene. The IMPD captain said no one in the SUV was intoxicated. Their names were not immediately shared publicly.
No one witnessed the crash, the captain said. IMPD’s Kevin Winks was seeking anyone with information or video footage to contact the officer at 317-327-6549.

Pacers’ Pascal Siakam still had to pay for parking at Indy 500 parade
INDIANAPOLIS — The man helping lead one of Indianapolis’ biggest race weekend traditions still had to pay 10 bucks to park.
As downtown filled Saturday morning for the 70th annual Lucas Oil 500 Festival Parade ahead of the 110th running of the Indianapolis 500, Pascal Siakam pulled up to a parking lot expecting a little Grand Marshal treatment.
Instead, the four-time NBA All-Star found himself in a friendly standoff with a vendor charging $10 for parking.
In a video posted to his social media accounts, the Pacers forward laughed as he rolled into the lot.
“I ain’t trying to pay for real,” Siakam joked from the car. “I ain’t even got 10 bucks.”
When Siakam rolled down his window to face the vendor he asked half-jokingly, “The Grand Marshal don’t get to park for free?”
The woman wasn’t buying it.
“You’re not the Grand Marshal,” she told him. “Caitlin Clark is.”
Siakam, alongside teammate Andrew Nembhard, served as co-Grand Marshal for this year’s parade. Clark, of course, was named Grand Marshal for Sunday’s race festivities — not the parade itself.
Even after Siakam explained the mix-up, the vendor still wasn’t convinced. The video shows her eventually looking it up herself before realizing the 6-foot-8 Pacers star was telling the truth the entire time.
Still, no special treatment
After all the back-and-forth, Siakam paid the $10 anyway.
The exchange quickly became a humorously relatable race weekend moment — even basketball royalty isn’t safe from negotiating for parking in downtown Indianapolis.
Saturday’s parade wound through downtown as one of the city’s signature traditions leading into race day, featuring marching bands, floats, giant balloons, celebrities and all 33 IndyCar drivers competing in Sunday’s Indy 500.

Ahead of the Indianapolis 500, DCR Restyles Romain Grosjean’s No. 18 to Honor the Late Kyle Busch
While there will be no No. 8 or No. 18 run at Charlotte Motor Speedway this Memorial Day weekend, over in Indianapolis, Kyle Busch’s most iconic No. 18 will have the chance to run the Indianapolis 500 that he never got following his unexpected passing on Thursday at the age of 41 from severe pneumonia that progressed into sepsis, per a statement shared from the family to The Athletic.
Joe Gibbs Racing has not used the No. 18 since Busch left the organization after the completion of the 2022 season, and as announced yesterday, Richard Childress Racing will halt the use of the No. 8 in honor of Busch until his son Brexton is ready to go “NASCAR racing.”
Plans came together the day before the running of the 110th Indianapolis 500 for Romain Grosjean to run Busch’s stylized No. 18 after a suggestion from Fox Sports broadcaster Townsend Bell, per Adam Stern of the Sports Business Journal. Fox Sports and JGR worked together to get the tribute approved and on the car.
Busch ran the No. 18 for 15 years, including both successful Championship campaigns in 2015 and 2019.
Right in between these two championships, Kyle Busch had the chance to race The Double in 2017, securing approval from Chevrolet, Toyota, and his main sponsor of the era, Mars Inc., with his iconic M&Ms scheme. Ultimately, Joe Gibbs shot it down. Earlier this year, on an episode of his former teammate Denny Hamlin’s podcast Actions Detrimental, he shared that if a deal were to come together again, he would take the opportunity with the assumed support of Richard Childress.
